Teasing Your PPC To Death

(No Ratings Yet)

Filed under: About Pay Per Click (PPC) by Laura @ 10:11 am

When it comes to advertising, teasing can be a very good thing. That means offering tantalising morsels and glimpses that are completely truthful about your site. What it does not mean is to play on your viewers' emotion, to lie to them, to deceive them or to make false promises.

None of those are good when it comes to pleasing the people you depend on for your bread and butter. What you need to do is become less of a false tease and more of a real one.

Learning how to tease

What many people do not seem to get about pay per click advertising is that the normal tricks of the trade do not work with this specific type of advertising. With other forms of advertising – your website as well – you can tease your visitors into coming to your website or to your store. Once there, your visitors may well find that they are not impressed with what you claimed and what the reality of the situation is.

However, they are already at your store or on your website and they are likely to look around at something else to spend their time while there. This is where these mislead visitors can often still convert to sales for you.

However, for PPC advertising campaigns, this does not work as well. You need to tease visitors with true promises and true glimpses of what you have to offer them. When they get to your landing page, they need to find what they expected, if not more. To tease them and watch them leave is only going to cost you money for every wasted click. Soon, your bank account will be empty and you will not have any more sales than you did before you started your PPC campaign.
